Abstract

With the advancement in technology, there are countless numbers of computeintensive
tasks with essential results that can help further the progress of the current
technology. The issue here is, these compute-intensive tasks are time and resource
consuming.
The purpose of this project is to create an android application which can help solve
this issue, which can also be implemented in many different platforms in the time to
come.
The key functionality that this whole project rides on, is cloud computing. With the
increasing trend in companies and organizations that are slowly migrating from
physical computers into virtual machines to do their work.
The application has a primary aim to let users easily access the capabilities of a
virtual machine wherever they are. Not only can the users receive the results
wherever they are, the only resources consumed during this process is that of the
virtual machine, making it very convenient.
Right now, to gain access to a virtual machine, a lot of configurations has to be
made on the user'
Due to the limitations of the virtual machines that this project is using, the
capabilities of the virtual machine is not that great, thus resulting in relatively slower
results, where running a Fibonacci algorithm can take up to 8 hours of running time.
The project has a lot of potential to help experts that require constant execution of
compute intensive tasks, and with better resources like better capability virtual
machines, these experts can get their results a lot faster and easier.
